GUI?
What do people mean by it?
My interpretation is that its a interface that you must use for various competitions, slightly changes the GUI and forces commands.
WHat do people want if I was to do it for cod4?
I already see some issues. If there are 'secret' commands which I'm quite positive there aren't. I don't know them. So how am I going to tell the game to ignore them if I don't know what they are.
What I would do is use a standard 'competative' config. Force the bulk of the commands. Leave Resoloution, Refesh Rate, AA and AF. Because obviously the have the biggest impact on FPS and differ from PC to PC.
So few questions, If I was to do it. What do you want from it? The fact it to be optional goes without saying. Pehaps hotswappable, in a IWD so there isn't a new MOD.ff all the time and the hassle that comes with it. Because if this was to happen, people are going to have to live with the fact there will be constant updates. Another question, what should be left optional? Ill leave all the HUD setting tweakable, so people can still have their pretty scoreboard, and leave the filmtweaks. But I am going to look into filmtweaks, I'm getting the impression there is somthing I don't know with them. People are defending them a bit more vigarously than if they just brighten up the game.

Just no.
They only make the game look nicer! Don't listen to ''colors whiners'', they don't give any advantage.
The only interessting and good thing is to create a menu (GUI of however you call it) which allows the not knowledged peeps to change. Don't force any other commands ... except of the compass thing.
Seriously I can see the end of the mod if you force all settings ...
Regarding keyboard and mouse macros there's nothing you can do about, how can you check if some1 is abusing cmds that way? Every match the admins should check every pcs to see if there's something wrong and we all know that's not gonna happens...
How can that mean the end of the mod when the gui will be used on lans only?
Just use fucking PB with ESL GV on.

cl_bypassmouseinput?

Surely having better visibility is an advantage.
Learn to speak you fucking deepshit. I wasnt even talking about mouseaccel cioto.
Im about cg_weaponcycledelay, and its the only command i dont have default, so shut up if you know shit, fucking 4thie.

Just get used to using your keyboard to change weapon..

Just get used to play with commands you dont have idea. Please, dont post useless comments. I dont play on WSAD and i dont switch weapon on keyboard. Its like i would tell you to play and use my setting after 6 years of playing..."Just get used to play on arrows!"

Definitely think this should be implemented, Paradox obviously had a clear unfair advantage over the others due to his knowledge of configs.
This command add you a delay between weapon switch. When the value is low (0-100/150) your weapon doesnt switch immediately to the second one after you press switch button/scroll. When its set to, lets say 200-500 weapon switch immediately after first press. My scroll is sensitive, thats why im using the lower value, so it doesnt switch to 2nd weapon when i dont want it.

I know you don't change your weapon on the keyboard, why the fuck would you use cl_weaponcycledelay on a keyboard.
I also don't use WASDA too, I used to use my scroll button to change weapons and I played with that for about 6-7 years too. Only took me a day to get used to changing weapons with the keyboard and I now find it more efficient.
Just a suggestion anyway my little padawan.
The problem is i dont have any button left to switch my weapon and simply, i dont want to switch it on keyboard. Do you think i never tried it? I did, but it just didnt work and i found that command and now its ok for me.

fuck you then!
Btw. NO DISCUSSION PLEASE. ANOTHER TOPIC FOR THAT.
I want opinion on it, and how to go about it.
:D
chill, im not gunna cut anythign usful, eg weaponcycledelay. those what a config should be, thigs like that.
but anythign wiht even a slight questionmark wil be locked.
just chill, this isnt going to happen happen overnight (even if it does). alot fo work will go into it. much testing too.
chill ya beans people.
will your gui have background too

Maybe in the promod menu where you have sensitivity etc you could just implement something like this in the menu.
Graphics
----> refresh rate
----> AA
----> resolution
Controls
----> bind keys for whatever
Options
----> name
Promod
--> ai_
----> corpse count
--> cg_
----> blood
----> brass
----> weaponcycledelay
And make the r_ page of 2 pages due to lots of commands. Just do it like that so you can only change the necessary commands, I'd happily help :)

most of them you cant even bind in the menu if you want to bind something to numpad :/

You can? I got like 3/4 of keys binded to Numpads(lean right, reload, meel attack, crouch, prone, sprint, nade)
If you press Numpad 7 and it binds it as "Home", then just turn on "Num Lock" key and then it will bind as "KP_Home" instead of "Home".

-It has to be made that you can use it in any server, and that you are allowed to join any server without it. So it has to work allways, and that you can play without it if you want. (In LAN you can make sure that everyone is using it, but in online it should be fully optional)
-Console disabled
-Ability to take screenshots and record demos. (Bind for screenshot, demo thing I don’t know)
-Forbidden: All kind of scripts and binds, even say binds to avoid unneccessary spam.
-Forbidden: toggling anything easily (fps, maxpackets…) To avoid lag etc packet wanking
There should be as less changeable commands as possible, I would quickly suggest thease:
//Graphics
-Resolution and aspect ratio
-Refress rate
-Anti aliasing
-(FPS) [only becouse there will be massive flame if you force it to 125]
//”Game settings”
-FOV
-Sensitivity
-m_pitch/yaw
-cl_mouseaccel & cg_weaponcycledelay
-Normal keybinds at the controls + weaponmenu binds
And yes, everything else should be forced to some point, I think most of us dont care in which. Example r_picmip should be like 1, and it should be not changeable. Everyone just have to get used on that value, and this applies to all kind of settings. Like lightning. normal map, bullet impacts, smoke softing, blood etc...
Colours/filmtwek things? I don’t know about thease, but things like this should be FORCED to some value.
Now I know, a lot of people will flame becouse they want to use their own personal settings which doesnt help them at all, we will hear a lot of ”It doesnt give any advantage”. Well, the idea of gui system is to make people settings equal in all situations, to make sure that everybody is in same line, differend picmip can be advantage in some situation, And you will get used to non-shiny weapons or picmip 3. Atleast everybody has same disadvantage as you. And make sure you made your decisions fps wise better way, that there will not be problems that somebody cant run gui becouse of bad pc.
+ + if you really want to make it super:
-make online GUI for those who want to play with “offical lan settings” in online too, in this gui console should be allowed for taking guid screenshots + whatever may be needed in cb etc, rcon etc
LOL MASSIVE POST, I EVEN MADE ACCOUNT FOR THIS!! I hope I got everything on it!
- By man who knows better what is best for you.
